We can go on and on about Movement, and I don't intend to do that here, but I have a few things to say on the subject: 1. There has been much criticism of Movement '04, some of it valid and constructive, but every picture I took at the Festival had people smiling in it. There was a vibe there

I think you make some excellent points. In reference to your last point, would it really taint the festival so much to hire a guy to wrangle sponsors? Someone whose job it is to wrangle sponsors? A guy to lobby to the mayor to drum up support and money for the event? Artists don't have time

Hiya Kent - your post has me thinking a few things ... I give Derrick credit for driving around as he did that day, asking for donations. My impression of it was somewhat grassroots and showed that he was willing to do pretty much anything to make this work. I'll never fault anyone for

So in other words you were assuming that they DO hire help finding sponsors, and for some reason I was thinking they do NOT. I thought D. May more or less did this thing single-handedly, which is the reason behind all the drama. I certainly could be wrong, I'm not in the know about this. Even

Right. I was at the press conference and this was discussed in some detail. It must be noted that there already is an existing management structure behind the festival who have credibility independent of it. Check Barbara Deyo who seems to have been running most of it, the Scottish woman (who's

sounds like they already have a lot in place. I'd happily pay to get in. I wonder how much they'd get if they still billed it as a 'free' festival but asked for donations right on the way in (when people presumably have money). and maybe tie part of the 'donations' to a local Detroit youth
